🔁 Is This the Great Rotation to Value?

Good morning. As the economy ebbs and flows, different sectors of the market tend to fare better..

It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. As the economy ebbs and flows, different sectors of the market tend to fare better than others. Over the past few years, however, tech has had a persistently strong performance. Value stocks, defined by those as relatively cheap compared to their earnings and sales, haven't fared as well. This is often the case. Tech stocks tend to be far more volatile and story-driven. Sometimes the story doesn't have a happy ending. With tech stocks under stress from rising interest rates, value has fared slightly better. It also doesn't hurt that many value names pay dividends at a time when rates are still incredibly low. This may not be a secular rotation to value stocks over growth names, but it is a strong trend that can't be ignored. Are you shifting your allocation against this value/growth shift? Or are you standing firm with your existing stock allocations? Hit reply and share your thoughts. Now here's the rest of the news: Sponsored Content Stock Options Are DEAD!

Today's TOP TIPS Ignore Supply Chain Problems, This Tech Giant Will Come Out Ahead With a shortage of computer chips and semiconductors, a number of companies have had to warn that they may not be able to produce enough of some goods to meet demand. For some companies, however, that may not be as big of a problem as expected. One such play that may fare well? Apple (AAPL).
